"The emperor's uncle is thoughtful..."

Chen Jia was surrounded by soft cushions and pillows. Once she relaxed a bit, her whole body was embedded in the softness. If the location was not inappropriate, she really wanted to close her eyes and fall asleep.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your compliment." The Regent took in the lady's lazy posture and said humbly, "It is my honor."

Chen Jia couldn't win the argument, so she stopped struggling and skillfully opened the three-layer small drawer.

As expected, there were some food inside. Chen Jia did not open them one by one, but just picked up a package and opened it. It was a light-colored crabapple cake.

The tender pink color and the identical crabapple flower shape immediately captured Chen Jia's heart.

She picked up a small piece and put it in her mouth. It was sweet and melted in her mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance on her teeth and cheeks.

There were only two pieces in total, and Chen Jia didn’t have the habit of eating alone.

Although the other party didn't like sweets, out of politeness, she still held the oil-paper bag and approached the Regent, "Uncle, do you want some?"

There is a big difference between eating by yourself without asking and eating by yourself after asking. It's just a process.

The Regent lowered his head and looked at the pink crabapple cake. He habitually wanted to refuse it, but thinking that it was the other party's intention, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and uncomfortably picked up the cake that was waiting for his favor, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Seeing that the other party really opened his mouth to eat, without any reluctance on his face, Chen Jia blinked in confusion, not sure what had just happened, "No, you're welcome--"

It was just a piece of cake. Chen Jia was not so stingy. She was just surprised that the Regent actually ate the cake.

After the Prince Regent finished his meal, he found some crumbs on his fingers.

He fell silent.

I was so absorbed in eating that I didn't even think about wiping my hands.

"Give--"

Chen Jia happened to have a clean handkerchief in her hand, which she took out to wipe her hands.

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." The Regent took the handkerchief and carefully wiped his fingers that had pinched the pastries.

When he raised his eyes, he caught a glimpse of the other person's fingers, so he stopped wiping his hands. His Majesty stared at the fingers eagerly, thinking that there was only one handkerchief.

And she gave it to him without hesitation...

It’s hard to describe what the feeling was. The calm lake in my heart suddenly began to surge with tiny bubbles, densely packed together.

"Your Majesty, please - don't do this for me -" The Regent knelt down in front of the Queen, holding her with his fiery hands, "I am not worthy of you putting yourself in such a difficult position!"

"I haven't wiped my hands yet..." Chen Jia's voice was a little weak as her hands were tightly held. She knew that the person in front of her had mysophobia.

"Minister, it's okay..."

The other party sighed helplessly, and used his clean hands to wipe away the debris on the woman's fingers bit by bit, with a pious and gentle expression.

Chen Jia stared at the other person blankly and suddenly became speechless.

She could feel the other person's fingertips stroking her own fingers. It was an indescribable feeling, and her heart was pounding!

"Your Majesty, it's done." The Regent let go of his hand at the right time and calmly sat back in his original position.

Chen Jia's mouth was dry and his face was flushed. He could only cover up by lifting a corner of the car curtain, pretending to be very interested in the outside world and letting out the heat.

The Regent did not press forward. While the other party was looking outside the car, he stuffed the handkerchief under his palm into his sleeve.

The carriage stopped, and before the two men got out, Ming He tactfully pushed the package that had been prepared long ago into the carriage.

"What is this?" Chen Jia asked curiously. The Regent opened the bundle and unfolded the contents, which turned out to be a purple mink hooded cloak.

"I got just enough from hunting a while ago to make a mink cloak suitable for Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will not mind." The Regent calmly wrapped the lady in the cloak and explained the origin of the cloak in a lighthearted manner.

The Regent's voice was not loud, but Ming He and others who had practiced martial arts for many years heard it clearly, and their faces twitched.

Sable is such a hard-to-hunt little creature!

God knows how many places these subordinates have run to day and night just for such a cloak!

In order not to damage the fur, they can only be captured alive, which makes hunting more difficult.

After such an arduous process, only a few words were left in the prince's mouth!

Sables: We don’t deserve it!

As the regent's right-hand man, the two men's ideas are indeed poles apart.

Fuyunwangtian: In the future, the subordinates of the regent will flee when the sables see them. Judging from the current number of sables, it may take three to five years to gather enough cloaks!

Ming He silently clenched his whip: It's just the queen's birthday, why is there such a big fuss... They are confused and unable to understand the prince's recent actions!

Kyoto's largest and most luxurious auction venue, the Wushuang Auction Venue, is a five-story wooden structure with a luxurious style. The entire building is in the shape of a U-shaped character.

The first floor is an open hall, the second and third floors are private rooms, and the fourth and fifth floors are areas not open to the public.

Chen Jia stood on the U-shaped corridor on the third floor. Looking down, he saw a spacious exhibition stand; looking up, he saw a glazed roof!

The polished smooth and mirror-clear colored glaze is comparable to glass, and the deep blue and boundless starry sky is perfectly presented.

In addition, there are many exquisite details, which show the atmosphere of not being short of money everywhere.

Chen Jia didn't stay for long and followed the Regent into the No. 1 box. Excuse me for being frank, the decoration inside the box was very similar to the modern style.

The cushioned wooden sofa chair, which was different from the styles of this era, immediately caught Chen Jia's attention.

After Chen Jia and the Regent took their seats, Fuyun pushed the door open, arranged the tea, snacks, etc. on the tray one by one, and then left again.

Each box is customized with a unique number plate, which is divided into jade, gold and silver according to the level of the box, and each number plate has a corresponding number.

If someone likes an exhibit, they can show their number tag to participate in the bidding. Every time they show their number tag, the price will automatically increase by one hundred taels.

In addition to the exclusive customized number plates, the reason why "Wushuang" is so popular is that it has pioneered maritime caravans.

Most of the items they auction are imported goods, but there are also some collectibles from their own country, all of which are rare and valuable. Coupled with the thorough publicity before each auction, it is hard not to be popular.

If you wish, "Wushuang" can also provide interpretation services.

Whenever there is something unusual at a booth, if you hire a tour guide, you can enjoy detailed explanations of the exhibits.

The auction has begun.

The female host, dressed simply and elegantly, looked very capable. She spoke the opening remarks skillfully with a smile on her face and a calm attitude, neither humble nor arrogant.

There is more than one host of the auction, it was just her turn today.

The first exhibit is a peep show that is so bright that you can see your reflection.
